Has anyone ever noticed that when a Group of people get together and.........

 call themselves a Band thus coming up with a Name, it Automatically becomes an Icon?

 Alice Cooper is not like that.

 I have Critically listened to his Music and sometimes he has a Great drummer, sometimes a Great guitarist; always a good Bass line; but somewhat unnoticable.....

 Do any other Musicians notice the resemblance to an ongoing search for Talent in Alice Cooper; whilst retaining the Prestige of the name "Alice Cooper?"

 I know it's tough for musicians to relate, but why is Alice such an Iconic phenomena? Is it his Ego or Pride that keeps the whole thing Going?

 I don't think so. It is his need for Bigger and Better Hits that will Shock the Airwaves.

 It is a pity how Old Bands dissolve and Songs get played too often, but that's Radio.

 I wish Alice all the Luck in the World in finding a Guitarist, Bassist and Drummer whom he can truly call members of a Complete and Entire Band.

 In the meantime, I will simply listen to the Music.

Right!

 It's a lot like Ozzy Osbourne and Randy Rhoads. There was an Excellent combination being put into play.

 On the other hand, if Bill Ward had been involved as a Drummer; it may perhaps have been more satisfactory, especially if Geezer were involved, but Tony Iommi was very influential at the Time and would probably never have even Dreamed of that.

 The Outfit on the Whole should Stand out just like Led Zeppelin or the Beatles. This is why they were able to produce such Lasting hits; they all understood the inherent Magic of the Music.

No, he's like an old Crow always Cawin........

 I like Freddie Mercury and David Bowie alot. they are very talented Vocalists.

 It takes more than a Good Singer, you really need Superior Vocal Talent in order to Inspire.

 They are few and far between, just like any other Member of the band.

I agree! These days, Alice's band is pretty tight, but Alice sometimes sounds like he's just pushing his voice if you know what I mean. Here's an example of what I'm talking about. In my opinion, this is probably his worst performance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUo8EYXNuCQ

Wow, someone somewhat understands me lmao

Alice has a "unique" voice..He doesn't have the same "Rock and roll" voice that many do..I don't think you can really compare Alice's voice to anyone else..

hilary will roll the old bats wheel chairs off the stage.

I would like to be in the middle thats for certain.
